Molly Jong-Fast on Trump Midterm Backlash: ‘You Have No Historical Precedent for a President Polling Under 40%’

‘He has done more than seven foreign adventures’

RUSH EXCERPT:

JONG-FAST: "You have no historical precedent for a president polling under 40% as low as 32% who has, you know, run on. He said he was going to end foreign wars. He said he was going to make things cheaper. He has done more than seven foreign adventures. He can’t you know, we’re six months into this war with Iran. We never were given any explanation as to why. The closest we got was Marco Rubio saying that maybe this Netanyahu had wanted him. I mean, it’s just complete. You know, the they’re trying to end nukes, but there were no nukes. I mean, it’s just nonsensical. And then you have gas prices and inflation. And I think the thing that I think is really the worst for Republicans right now, though, is that Donald Trump really wants them to stay tied to him into the midterm. And if you look back historically, Biden and Bill Clinton and Obama all said, when you’re running in the midterms, you can run against me. Because I know that a lot of times midterms, right, are referendums on the incumbent.”
